Multiple pet AI quality-of-life changes and bug fixes are being made for the ranger. For example, commanding your pet to use a skill or attack an enemy will now occur instantaneously and will break the creature out of its current action.

Combined with the free retraining out of combat, this is encouraging. There will need to be some balance, some will be OP, some useless. But long term as they add more this will even out. I can see over time lots of situational retraiting, particularly when we get to save builds, and niche traits like the blind one Malawi mentions above could be great if we get a fractal that blinds a lot, say.

No, because you remove blind by attacking an enemy. It's a grandmaster trait designed specifically for the rare situation in which someone stacked a long duration blind on you and moved out of rifle auto range, and you need to get that Kill Shot off right now to down them instead of waiting a couple of seconds. Or alternatively, Eviscerate.

Necro traits have always been placed in random lines, unfortunately. Good point about auto attack to remove blind, Malawi, I'd forgotten if was so easily removed. Long term we can hope they move these about tiers or trait lines to increase flexibility/ viability, although they haven't done that much in the past.
To be honest, it might be worth them scrapping the whole adept, master, grandmaster tied to a trait line thing and just giving you points to spend. Then they can balance by increasing the cost of the more valuable traits. Play how you want and all that.

THe Saturday Taco trial was not successful but they wanted to see how many people would turn up. It wasn't very well advertised and for a lot of people who turned up it was their first Taco attempt. Monkey volunteered as a commander. Not sure when they will trya a Satuday again but the weekly Monday one will carry on.
